    Dynamics of pattern formation and emergence of swarming in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Esin Demir, Y Ilker Yaman ... Askin Kocabas
    Collective responses of animals are generally controlled by complex biological mechanisms and in Caenorhabditis eleganscollective dynamics are purely controlled by physical parameters such as oxygen penetration and bacterial diffusion.

    Protein phosphatase 1 activity controls a balance between collective and single cell modes of migration

    Yujun Chen, Nirupama Kotian ... Jocelyn A McDonald
    Protein phosphatase 1 activity promotes cohesive collective cell migration by restricting actomyosin contractility to the periphery of the collective and maintaining proper cadherin–catenin complex protein levels at cell–cell junctions.

    The recycling endosome protein Rab25 coordinates collective cell movements in the zebrafish surface epithelium

    Patrick Morley Willoughby, Molly Allen ... Ashley EE Bruce
    Rab25a and Rab25b mutant embryos exhibit epithelial spreading delays during morphogenesis and are characterized by cytokinesis defects leading to cell fusions, heterogeneous epithelial cell sizes, and reduced cortical actomyosin contractility.

    A high rate of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in a large-scale survey on Arabs

    Eyad A Qunaibi, Mohamed Helmy ... Iyad Sultan
    Providing important data regarding the proportion of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and barriers toward vaccination in Arabic-speaking people to guide addressing the problem and achievement of widespread vaccination and collective immunity.

    Global diversity and antimicrobial resistance of typhoid fever pathogens: Insights from a meta-analysis of 13,000 Salmonella Typhi genomes

    Megan E Carey, Zoe A Dyson ... Global Typhoid Genomics Consortium Group Authorship
    An analysis of the largest Salmonella Typhi genome collection to date (n=13,000) provides an updated overview of global genome diversity and antimicrobial resistance trends over time to inform public health action.

    Destructive disinfection of infected brood prevents systemic disease spread in ant colonies

    Christopher D Pull, Line V Ugelvig ... Sylvia Cremer
    Upon detecting a fatal infection using chemical cues, ants puncture the cuticle of sick brood and inject antimicrobial poison that disrupts the pathogen's life cycle and prevents it from reproducing, thus protecting the colony from disease.

    Wnt/PCP controls spreading of Wnt/β-catenin signals by cytonemes in vertebrates

    Benjamin Mattes, Yonglong Dang ... Steffen Scholpp
    Wnt signaling regulates its effective signaling range by controlling Wnt ligand transport on signaling filopodia within vertebrate tissues.

    Apical contacts stemming from incomplete delamination guide progenitor cell allocation through a dragging mechanism

    Eduardo Pulgar, Cornelia Schwayer ... Miguel L Concha
    Incomplete delamination serves as a cellular platform for coordinated tissue movements during development, guiding newly formed progenitor cell groups to the differentiation site.

    Both prey and predator features predict the individual predation risk and survival of schooling prey

    Jolle Wolter Jolles, Matthew MG Sosna ... Iain D Couzin
    Detailed tracking of live predators attacking live schools of prey reveals the crucial interplay between predator attack strategy and prey behaviour and positioning in determining the predation risk within mobile animal groups.

    Nuclear export inhibition jumbles epithelial–mesenchymal states and gives rise to migratory disorder in healthy epithelia

    Carly M Krull, Haiyi Li, Amit Pathak
    Nuclear export inhibition reveals concurrent epithelial and mesenchymal phenotypes that cause mechanosensitive disorder in collectively migrating epithelia.
